Victoria Beckham, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss joined mourners at a memorial service in Milan for late Vogue Italia editor Franca Sozzani.

The fashion elite turned out to pay their respects to the long-time editor of Italy’s style bible at a service that fittingly took place at the end of Milan Fashion Week.

Franca was editor-in-chief at Vogue Italia from 1988 to 2016 and died on December 22 after a year-long illness.

Victoria Beckham paid tribute to her friend on Instagram shortly after hearing of her death, posting a photo of them together.

Victoria captioned it: “I had the privilege of spending time with Franca over the years. Not enough time as it now so sadly transpires. Whenever I was with her I was mesmerised by her strength of character, her charitable work, her creative vision. She encouraged me and inspired me whenever we spoke. What a legacy she leaves behind.
